Prevalence of Lipodystrophy Syndrome and Its Role as Cause of Metabolic Disturbances (METALIP)

June 29, 2018 updated by: Asociacion para el Estudio de las Enfermedades Infecciosas

Prevalence of Lipodystrophy Syndrome and Secondary Metabolic Syndrome in HIV-infected Patients

To evaluate the prevalence of lipodystrophy syndrome in patients receiving currently available antiretroviral drugs, and the prevalence of associated metabolic syndrome in HIV-infected patients with a previous diagnosis of lipodystrophy syndrome, according to the severity of fat accumulation and antiretroviral drug use.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Cross-sectional evaluation of two groups of patients:

  • patients receiving currently available drugs, in order to determine the changes in fat accumulation by successive dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) determinations
  • patients with previous lipodystrophy syndrome, as evaluated by questionnaire (HOPS) and total body dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), in order to determine the prevalence of hypertension, low high density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol, glucose disturbance (insulin resistance or diabetes), fat accumulation (waist circumference) and hypertriglyceridemia.

The prevalence of Metabolic syndrome will be evaluated according to the different definitions (IDF, NCEP-ATP III, WHO).

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

HIV-infected patients on antiretroviral therapy with current drugs (excluding drugs previously associated with fat disturbance), and HIV-infected patients with previous evaluation of lipodystrophy syndrome in different severity, as determined by DXA and questionnaire.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • HIV infection
  • Older than 18 years
  • Receiving first or second antiretroviral regimen or
  • Previous evaluation and classification of lipodystrophy syndrome

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Pregnancy
  • Diagnosis of hypothyroidism, Cushing's syndrome or prolonged intake of corticosteroids or hormones before inclusion
  • Patients who had received antiretroviral drugs known to produce fat disturbances (for lipodystrophy prevalence objective)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Prevalence of metabolic syndrome as defined by the NCEP-ATP III (National Cholesterol Education Programme-Adult Treatment Panel III)
Time Frame: 3 months
Prevalence of the different components of this syndrome: Abdominal obesity: waist circumference ≥102 cm in men and ≥88 cm in women, hypertriglyceridemia: ≥150 mg/dl (1.695 mmol/l), low HDL-C: <40 mg/dl in men and <50 mg/dl in women, high blood pressure (BP): >130/85 mmHg, and high fasting glucose: >110 mg/dl.
3 months
Prevalence of lipodystrophy syndrome as defined by changes in fat by DXA
Time Frame: 6 meses
Comparison of changes in visceral and subcutaneous fat during current antiretroviral therapy for patients receiving current antiretroviral regimens and who never received thymidine analogues, didanosine, lopinavir, indinavir, or nelfinavir.
6 meses

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Value of dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in predicting the development of lipodystrophy and metabolic syndrome
Time Frame: 3 months
Correlations of visceral fat by DXA with fat accumulation, hypertension, diabetes or hypertriglyeceridemia
3 months

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
February 1, 2016

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
February 1, 2018

Study Completion (Actual)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
